It's the star's fifth engagement.

Congratulations are in order for Jennifer Lopez, who is now engaged!

She and partner Alex Rodriguez announced their happy news late last night.

Taking to Instagram, each of them shared a photograph of her hand wearing a diamond ring that we can only assume is kind of heavy to wear.

Like, seriously.

The couple are currently on holiday and going by the snap, it looks like Alex got down on one knee on the beach.

He also hinted at the news yesterday, posting a quote about soulmates to his Instagram story.

He and Jennifer, 49, first began dating in February of 2017.

Alex, 43, will be J-Lo’s fourth husband.

She was married to Ojani Noa from 1997 to 1998, Chris Judd from 2001 to 2003 and Marc Anthony from 2004 to 2014. She and Marc are parents to 11-year-old twins Maximilian and Emme.

Jennifer also got engaged to Ben Affleck in late 2002, though they called off the wedding the following September.

The singer said last year that she and Alex understand one another well.

“It’s good, it’s healthy; we communicate well,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

“We understand each other’s lives in a way that most other people couldn’t.

“We both entered the public eye in our early 20s and overachieved right from the start. And that affects every dynamic in your life, from your family to your work to your relationships.

“We have a similar makeup.”

Baseball player Alex was married to Cynthia Scurtis between 2002 and 2008.
